Question

Lucy came home late from curfew. When her parents asked her where she had been, she lied and said she was at Mary’s house, when in reality she was at Joe’s house. Lucy’s mom found out and grounded her for 2 weeks. Once the 2 weeks were over, every time Lucy wanted to go do things with friends, Lucy’s mom would say no, because Lucy broke her trust. What is something both Lucy and her mom can do to improve their relationship?

Answer 1

Answer: They need to improve their communication and start communicating their feelings honestly and openly .

Explanation:

They are keeping their feelings boiling inside which doesn't help their situation.

Lucy can start by asking for forgiveness from his mom by apologising for what she did and for the lies she told .

She may also ask them to suggest things that she may do now to regain their trust .

Her mom also needs to express how this made her feel and what ever mistrust that she now has towards Lucy .

When she has expressed her own feelings, she can then extend her forgiveness towards Lucy , they can then start over again.

She can also make her see why she is always worried about her and why she has set those curfews.
